🐻 THE BEAR CUB ANNUAL FUND DRIVE
IS NOW LIVE! 🐻
Our Bear Cub families are coming together to support our school.
This year, it’s all about PARTICIPATION!
💛 Any donation amount counts toward your grade’s participation.
🏆 Grades are competing for the highest percentage of families participating.
🎉 Each Friday’s leading grade level earns EXTRA RECESS the next week!
🍦 And the grade with the highest participation at the end of the drive gets to choose the ultimate prize:
SILLY STRING THE PRINCIPAL
or
TURN THE PRINCIPAL INTO A HUMAN SUNDAE!
Every family can help their student's grade climb the leaderboard.
No gift is too small.
Should you join the PTA??
Just want the emails about school events? Yes, you should join.
No time to volunteer? Still yes.
Want to help here and there? Absolutely.
Have lots of time to give? Yep!
What about money?
- Think joining means you have to donate? Nope.
- Don’t get us wrong. We need to raise money to do what we do, but we never want money to be a barrier to joining. That's why we have low-cost & no-cost membership options! Join for as low as $15/year or $0!
When we say join in the way that works for you,
we actually mean it.
Join us in building a connected school community for our students, families, and staff.
